    Home Trip Trip Planning Severe Winter Weather Operating Plans

Severe Winter Weather Operating Plans

DART has developed contingency plans designed to maintain service to and from each of our transit facilities, should winter weather disrupt normal rail operations.
  • Operating Scenario 1
  • Operating Scenario 2
  • Operating Scenario 3

Operating Plans for Severe Weather

DART has developed three contingency plans designed to maintain service to and from each of our transit facilities, should winter weather disrupt normal rail operations.

In the event either plan is necessary, notices will be placed on  DART.org/rideralerts  and sent to local media outlets 6-8 hours prior to start of service on the day of implementation. You may also sign up for My DART Updates (text and/or email) at  DART.org/email  or follow us on Twitter  @DARTalerts .

Please keep this information handy during the winter season, as it contains important information regarding your daily commute.

DART bus routes will operate on a weekend schedule with limited service added on express routes 306, 308, 378 and 383.

DART will also run seven shuttle routes. Use the Scenario 1 chart, below the map, to determine which shuttle best serves your destination.

Operating Scenario 2

FULL RAIL SHUTDOWN BUS SERVICE ONLY

DART bus routes will operate on a weekend schedule with limited service added on express routes 306, 308, 378 and 383.

DART will also run 14 shuttle routes. Use the Scenario 2 chart to determine which shuttle best serves your destination, and note that some stations are bypassed.

  • All shuttle buses to and from outside of Downtown Dallas will serve one of the following: Rosa Parks Plaza, West End Station or Pearl/Arts District Station.
  • Route 560 is a Downtown Circulator, serving West End, Akard, St. Paul and Pearl/Arts District stations.

The Dallas Streetcar will not run in this scenario. Instead, there will be a shuttle bus (with SHUTTLE in the headsign) running to and from EBJ Union Station and the Bishop Arts District, making all stops.

 

Operating Scenario 3

FULL RAIL SHUTDOWN - SERVICE ON SELECT BUS ROUTES

A weekend schedule will operate on the highest-volume bus routes in the system.
